Installation of iSeriesPython 2.7 Requires V5R3 or higher

---------------------------------------------------------

 
* Download python27revc.zip.
 
* Create two save files PYTHON27 and LIB in QGPL.
 
* Decompress python27revc.zip
 
* FTP the files python27.savf and lib.savf to your iSeries

   (See the HOWTO_FTP.txt for detailed instructions)
 
* If library PYTHON27 does not already exist, create it.
 
* Run RSTOBJ OBJ(*ALL) SAVLIB(PYTHON27) DEV(*SAVF) SAVF(QGPL/PYTHON27)
 
* Run RST DEV('/qsys.lib/qgpl.lib/lib.file') OBJ(('/python27/lib')) CRTPRNDIR(*YES)
 
* Add the site-packages folder: mkdir '/python27/site-packages'
 
* If it is not already in QGPL, duplicate the PYTHON27/PYTHON command into QGPL:
 
  CRTDUPOBJ OBJ(PYTHON) FROMLIB(PYTHON27) OBJTYPE(*CMD) TOLIB(QGPL)



To utilize iSeriesPython in interactive mode, execute the PYTHON command from a command line.



To execute iSeriesPython scripts in batch, submit the PYTHON command as in the following example:

   SBMJOB CMD(PYTHON PROGRAM('/python27/scripts/example.py') PARM('Arg 1' 'Arg 2')) JOB(EXAMPLE) ALWMLTTHD(*YES)                               Note: the ALWMLTTHD parameter is only required for Python scripts that will utilize threading.



If you use an IFS directory other than '/python27' for the lib directory 
put the name of that directory into a data area called PYTHONHOME.
